Eduard 1/48 Polikarpov I-16 with Full Video Build

[Builder]

My latest build. The Eduard Polikarpov I-16 Type 10 in Chinese Markings. I have done a full video build showing pretty much the entire process with time lapse where required. I painted the kit with Humbrol Enamels and Tamiya Enamels. I used a host of weathering products, all detailed in the video. The video itself took almost as long as the kit, but I think it does a decent job of showing what goes into building a kit. 

 

I hope you all enjoy!

Fantastic, looks really cool. Especially the rib lines on the wings Upper surface. How did you achieve that?

 

I love this little plane. And you've done a brilliant job of it. I've got a tiny 1/72 I built after seeing pics of it in a book with Cyrillic writing on. Had to build one. 

 

Not as good as yours, I want a 1/48 one now 😂

Thanks appreciate it.

 

@FPDPenguin to weather the ribs, watch Minute 26:39 of the video. It will detail all of it.
